Hi all,
Whenever I plug/unplug an output on my compositor, Xwayland's DPI value
increases. I've noticed a bug a long time ago in wlroots, and realized
I can reproduce in weston too.
For instance, when starting `weston --xwayland` this is the DPI:
> xdpyinfo | grep dots
resolution: 96x96 dots per inch
When I plug an output:
resolution: 114x114 dots per inch
When I unplug it:
resolution: 131x131 dots per inch
And this is going crazy when the output is a virtual window and I
resize it:
resolution: -2147483648x-2147483648 dots per inch
This is causing issues with some X11 clients (for instance dmenu).
However, both the mode size and the physical size are still correct. Do
you have any idea where this DPI value is coming from?
Thanks,
---
